Google Coach Hank Crisp and it'll tell you about an exceptional human being. What it fails to tell you is that he recruited Paul Bryant and Don Hutson from out of Arkansas to Alabama.
He and his family were friends with my family, and my mother worked for him and Coach Thomas in the AD. All my life I heard stories about how "Coach Hank" would help the boys on the team, from out of his own pocket, who came from poor families when they were without essentials. Coach Bryant looked after his wife after he died (his son and only child, Hank Jr., died of cancer when he was in his 20s).
It was a totally different world back then.
